Revolve Festival Responds to Fyre Festival Comparisons After Influencers Call Out the Issues Online

The Revolve Festival took place this past weekend and there have been comparisons to the Fyre Festival online.

TikToker Hannah Kosh, posted about her experience, saying, “People were raiding the buses, the bus drivers refused to come back, I saw three people pass out in line myself—wild.”

Law student and influencer Averie Bishop posted footage of herself at the waiting area, saying, “There was pushing, shoving, shouting, yanking in front of the buses, people standing in-between the buses, like, while they were moving. Just to get on these buses and get to the Revolve Festival.”

Now, a Revolve representative is responding to the reports.

“In anticipation of the high level of interest in attending REVOLVE Festival this year, REVOLVE worked closely with all appropriate city and safety authorities to ensure a safe and secure path for guests to access the 2-day invitation-only event,” a representative told E! News. “With an event of this magnitude, city regulations mandate an off-site location for guest check-in and parking, as well as licensed shuttle transportation to and from the venue. The off-site lot was set up with guest parking, as well as rideshare drop-off and pickup access with added WIFI for car booking, restrooms, shade, water, medics and security.”

“As the festival was reaching capacity late Saturday afternoon,” the statement added, “shuttle access to the venue was limited in order to remain in compliance with safety requirements causing longer wait times for entry and resulting in some guests not being able to attend the festival. The safety of our guests is of the utmost importance to us and we will always make that a priority.”

“We sincerely apologize to all the guests who were impacted,” the statement concluded. “We always strive to provide a great experience and we promise to do better.”

The Revolve Festival had many famous guests this past weekend including Kim Kardashian.
